Displaying a Histogram

file: histogram.net
example data files: field.general, particle.general

This network plots a histogram of the data values in a data set (strictly speaking in a DX field; see Section [*]). It also displays the median, minimum and maximum values in the data. It will work on $n$-dimensional gridded data and $n$-dimensional particle data. It can be used for preliminary investigation of a dataset about which you have no prior knowledge, in order to determine the range and distribution of values which it contains.
